This group consisted of Jack

H. Durbin. Ray Rookard, Ellis
Dolan, Byron Serfling and Chat.
Pfelffer of Gardiner, and Warren
Waggoner of Reedsport. They
were told that they should take
their problem In Reedsport to the
city council, with the possibility
that the city and port might work
together toward a solution.
A committee from the port will
Inspect the condition at Gardiner,
where a hoist recently erected
by individuals for use by the pub
lic in lowering and raising small
boats, is approximately 20 feel
from the nearest water at ex
treme low tide.
Dredging Required

sibly digging a narrow channel

Marijuana Possession
Jails Two At Pendleton
PENDLETON, Ore.. Aug. 6
(JP) Two Portland men, Francis
co Salvadore Villegos, 29, and
Jimmy Ralph Argenbar, 24, are
in the county jail here awaiting
a hearing before the U. S. Com
missioner on a charge of pos
session of marijuana. State Po
lice arrested the two at StanfieM
junction and said they found eight
pounds of the drug in the car
the two occupied.
Villegos and Argenbar said the
car and marijuana belonged to an
other person, officers said, but
did not divulge the name of the
alleged owner.
The sheriff's department here
said Villegos Is on parole at pres
ent from the State Penitentiary
said he recently moved to Port
land from Hawaii.
few months. It was pointed out
that the upper river, in the Gar
diner and Reedsport vicinities,
will soon be popular fishing
grounds when the silverside run
arrives.
The main Interest of the group,
however, was with conditions at
Winchester Bay, which have been
so bad during the past two
months that it nas at times been
impossible even to drive out onto
the dock for the purpose of un
loading a boat from a trailer or
top of a car.
The delegation was informed
that the port commission was
definitely interested In the proj
ect at Winchester Bay from two
standpoints: first in getting a
disposal area for the deposit of
material when the channel and
turning and mooring basins are
dredged. The port is obligated to
furnish such disposal area, and
the project is approved, and
awaiting an appropriation.
The port is also interested in
developing the Winchester Bay
locality for use by both commer
cial and sport fishing craft, and
has some tentative plans in this
connection.
Title Transfer Desired
However, nothing along this
line can be accomplished while
the title remains with the county,
and the transfer of property
there, from Douglas county to
the Port of Umpqua, has never
been made although tentatively
agreed upon a few years ago.
The delegation expressed a de
sire to work with the port, and
asked that if the title transfer is
made at a future date, and the
group be considered for any con
cessions that might be allowed
on the dock, instead of making
such a concession to an individ
ual. In this way, any profit made
from the concession would be
used to further the wildlife con
servation and development.
A letter was read from Con
tractor Tom Lillebo, asking per
mission to use the south end of
the port dock, now fenced off is
unsafe for general use, for un
loading trusses for the Smith Riv
er bridge. In his letter, Lillebo
agreed to make any repairs need
ed at his own expense, and to
hold the port free from responsi
bility while using it. This permis
sion was granted.
